Wanna damage a turret but afraid of dying? Use AwesomeDude173's Patented Five-Second Rule. Ensure that at the very least you have as many champions attacking a turret as there are champions defending it. Then attack, counting for five seconds. After those five second have passed, proceed to make a tactical retreat. Most champions take at least five seconds to respond to an attack on their turret. Remember, turrets don't recharge, so sometimes a war of attrition is your best strategy.

It's a pretty decent "rule", even tho 5sec might be a little too much.
Most ppl are too afraid to attack the turret even though their team clearly is stronger.
As long as you put a tank in front of the carry you should have no trouble letting your carry attack it a few times.

And so Blizzard sent unto them this Brawl of Yogg, As a lesson for their sins of Pride and Greed, for he is the Prophet of Madness and RNG. On that day, the tavern descended into an era of chaos and darkness, until the weekend passed and everyone forgot all about it. Amen. Book of SMOrc, Verse 20, Chapter 4." - Feam T

ranged champs should be attacking turrets at every opportunity (actual opportunities being defined by a varying number of factors) while battling at a tower, this rule is too black and white to apply in any situation.
I also disagree that enemies take 5 secs to respond to someone attacking their turret. That number is arbitrary and extremely long, considering if a cait was just standing there, attacking a turret with brand there, he could probably nuke her down in 1.5 secs if she honestly intended to just stand there attacking the turret for a full 5 secs and then retreat.

Yea, pretty much. Just attack when you have the chance.
A rule just won't work.

Teemo : Com'on guys, those guys won't dare to hit us at our turret cause we're 5 :D

Your ally has been slain X4~
You have been slain~
Your turret has been destroyed~

EDIT : I just had to say that :) Anyway the rule sucks, seeing that most of the time, other factors affects it more.

Eve guide :D

Hope whatever I say helps! :D

PS : Not all my criticism is good. Most of the time, I just talk like that anyway. So forgive me if you get offended, unless you just can't look from my angle, or at least close enough.

This might work if you are split lane pushing and the enemy is headed your way. But even than you have to think about movement speed of enemies, items, summoner spells, and where you are in lane.
